Merfolk talent

Name: Merfolk
Requirements: Character creation or surgery done by a character with Ijutsu (RPC or NPC is fine)
Cost: 0EXP at creation, or 200EXP if obtained later.
Description: Merfolk or “Fishmen” have been the tales of superstition for many a generation, and rightfully so. No one really comes into contact with them or at least they don’t believe they do; making them but sailor stories and children’s tales. They are however quite real and do exist, primarily within the ocean or islands. They are a strange breed however and no true bloodline is between them, aside from them just being family, as many are born with different forms or born with a lack of certain forms. This making their linage scarcer and more diluted than the water they call home. Due to this diluted linage it is possible for those who have not been born as one to become one through newer surgery procedures; though high risk some tend to prefer it if they are forced to live near watery environments, or they just want gills for a weird reason. Regardless all merfolk be it surgery subjects or naturally born have the ability to breathe within water perfectly fine, and control it slightly. The ability to control it slightly however is somewhat limited and even with proper chakra training it doesn’t seem to improve. Water control range is up to 100ft for natural water and while water made from chakra is far harder making the range 30ft. The water control itself isn’t perfect and generally the bigger the water total they are trying to manipulate the easier it is, while the smaller it is the harder it is, so while perfect for the sea’s they call home it is not perfect for the land or shoving water up someone nose for a laugh. Merfolk are faster within water naturally increasing their base speed in it by 50%, and their bodies are highly resistant to temperature changes making water temperature changes (in many cases) unaffected them, though they can still be stuck within a block of ice etc. Upon land it is only a slight resistance to temperature changes, that helps make a breeze not so chilly or the sun not so hot but otherwise has no effect. The reason for the Merfolk name is due to the fishy appendages they have; even a strange skin color is counted amongst the traits. A merfolk can have any kind of fishy appendages and can hide them should they wish too; though many who are born naturally that way are more inclined to refuse too, and those who have it done via surgery are more inclined too. This isn’t set in stone just a notice by the common people due to cultural differences between regions and such. One thing of note is that Merfolk are not known for having the fire element, and cannot have it.
